Re: [quizbowl] 2003 NAQT ICT to be held in Los Angeles: A Bet

we won't be going to the ICT, but that's because we probably won't qualify 
and haven't been an official campus organization long enough to get funding 
to go...
adam, to answer your question, my high school team had to deal with post 
9/11 security. we went to chip nationals in new orleans this past june, 
flying from tulsa-houston hobby-new orleans. oddly enough, the security 
guards in tulsa gave us the most trouble, taking the system out of the case, 
interrogating the now-terrified underclassman responsible for it, setting it 
up and plugging it in. the guards in new orleans and houston made him open 
the case and explain what it was, but that was it (although a guard in n.o. 
insisted on going through the team's tennis bag and wanding each individual 
tennis ball, convinced that one might be a cherry bomb). none of the teams 
we talked to there mentioned any major hassles with security...
